What an outstanding film, and very interesting to see such comprehensive footage of telejibs in operation.

If that was available on DVD I'd buy it!

Good find, and thanks for posting.

Very good "out & back" video.
Geographically, the incident occurred on the "Gulf Oil refinery branch" on Jan 6th 1991 between Milford Haven and Johnston (HaverfordWest).
The recovery some 3 months later April 28th. All copper pipe work and traction motor cables with other various metal components being stolen from the loco in the months in-between.

Further Wales crane info contained in the 2006 book by Steve Morris / Ty Mawr Publications
"Cardiff Canton Diesel Depot and Locomotive Duties" ISBN 0-9552354-0-5
